I searched google on how to change this setting but only found a near  
Godwin talk.

I sent ‘help’ to removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid but received not clue.

I sent ‘guide’: no clue either.

Thanks for your help.

You could set up a filter in your mail program to send all mail from you  
on  
ruby-talk to your trash folder immediately.

That’s what I did in gmail, but it is annoying (pops up a warning  
message) and I read there is a configuration setting “receive my own  
posts”  
([http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/197530](http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/197530))  
but I can’t find how to change this.
